Count: 2
Count: 3
No break, loop completed.
Code:
i = 1

while num > 0:
num //= 10
count += 1
print('Digits:', count)
Output:
Digits: 4
Code:
num = 123
rev = 0
while num > 0:
digit = num % 10
rev = rev * 10 + digit
num //= 10
print('Reversed:', rev)
Output:
Reversed: 321
Code:
num = 5
fact = 1
while num > 0:
fact *= num
num -= 1
print('Factorial:', fact)
Output:
Factorial: 120
Code:

print('*' * i)
i += 1
Output:

***
Iterates numbers from 2 to 20.
For each number, it checks if it's divisible by any number less than itself (starting
from 2).
If not divisible, it's a prime.
The else attached to the inner while loop runs only if no break occurs, i.e., the
number is prime
Code:
num = 2
while num <= 20:
i = 2
while i < num:
if num % i == 0:
break
i += 1
else:
print(num, 'is prime')
num += 1
Output:
2 is prime
3 is prime
5 is prime
7 is prime
11 is prime
13 is prime
17 is prime
19 is prime
Code:
password = 'open123'
attempts = 0
while attempts < 3:
entry = input('Enter password: ')
if entry == password:
print('Access Granted')
break
attempts += 1
else:
print('Access Denied')
Output:
(Depends on user input)
Code:
num = 10
while num <= 50:
if num % 3 == 0 and num % 5 == 0:
print('Found:', num)
break
num += 1
else:
print('Not found')
Output:
Found: 15
Code:
original = 121
num = original
rev = 0
while num > 0:
digit = num % 10
rev = rev * 10 + digit
num //= 10
else:
if rev == original:
print('Palindrome')
else:
print('Not a Palindrome')
Output:
Palindrome
Code:
numbers = [3, 8, 11, 4, 9]
i = 0
key = 4
while i < len(numbers):
if numbers[i] == key:
print('Found at index', i)
break
i += 1
else:
print('Not Found')
Output:
Found at index 3
Problem : Program to print the even numbers between 1 and 25 by using Jump
statements( Break or continue)
What the programme is expected to do
The loop starts from 1 and runs till 25.
If the number is odd, it skips the rest of the loop using continue.
If it's even, it prints the number.
Flow chart
num = 1
while num <= 25:
if num % 2 != 0:
num += 1
continue
print(num)
num += 1
Rinku
for number in range(0, 26, 2):
if (number//2) == 0 :
continue
print("Number is", number)
print("Out of loop")
n = int(input("Enter a number:"))
if n == 0 or n == 1:
print(n, "is not a prime number")
elif n > 1:
for i in range(2, n):
if (n % i == 0):
print(n, "is a prime number")
print(i, "times", n/i, "is", n)
break
else:
print(n, "is a prime number")
